[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullis had an excellent team last year - the best team in school history. They also have a great coaching staff.

Some of the schools you mentioned where a few of the seniors had made committees to, still had to go do a Post Grad year, which is still no guarantee the coach will still take you if can't get your grades up. After spending that type of tuition at a Bullis, I would hope I wouldn't then have to dish another $55K plus for my son to go do a PG year so that he can get into college.

I would disagree with this "take" on things.  Coaches at high-powered programs asking kids to take a PG year because they don't have room in their current recruiting class is becoming more common, so I would not by any means assume this is about getting grades up.

With that said, I think it's fair to say that Bullis is probably seen in this area as the weakest academically of the six IAC schools (which are strong, so that isn't an insult in the larger scheme of things).  Obviously they can still get lacrosse players into the Ivies, so maybe that particular distinction doesn't matter, but that's the perception in terms of strengths of the actual institutions.[/quote]
